I don't know if this is a startup or valley or techbro thing but in my industry there is no ageism that I can detect.

In aerospace they seem to prefer people who know where the bodies are buried, know how to bury bodies, have buried a few bodies themselves, and can instruct others on body burying.

I've worked at a mix of companies, corporate and startup, and I can't say that I've seen an instance of it.

The closest thing I've seen is that people who have X number of years of experience doing the same thing over and over again don't get opportunities that people with the same number of years doing different things do, unless there's a position that needs X exclusively.
